KATC Feature: Nike Air Max LeBron VII EKIN University Event

The Nike Air Max LeBron VII is officially set to release tomorrow morning. Earlier this week though, teams from NikeTown NY, Foot Locker 34th Street, Foot Locker Times Square, and the House of Hoops NY all participated in the Nike Air Max LeBron VII EKIN University Basketball Tournament. The Nike Air Max LeBron VII EKIN University Tournament gave all of the players/sales associates in the tournament the opportunity to learn about the Air Max LeBron VII, and, the chance to perform drills and run full court before anyone else. New York EKIN, Will Eberhart conducted the Air Max LeBron VII EKIN University event, going through the intricate technological and aesthetic details of the Air Max LeBron VII. Eberhart's lecture and the fullcourt run ensured that all of the players/associates would be more than prepared to properly speak on the Nike Air Max LeBron VII to anyone that came in to their stores looking for a pair on launch day, and beyond.
